» It was a wonderful morning in Zurich with the Sun beaming and temperatures dropping to 14C. One of my travel companions did not skip her running routine and I was tempted to set up my own walking mission and relish a slower pace.

» It was starting to drizzle and the mountain was shrouded in a sea of mist, making it difficult to see the winding roads leading to Ang Ka Nature Trail nestled in Chiang Mai's Doi Inthanon National Park. There's something alluring about travelling in the rainy season, when the forest becomes green and provides a sanctuary from the heat.

» Just a 45-minute drive across the First Thai-Lao Friendship Bridge and with a linguistic resemblance to the Isan dialect, Vientiane is one of the most welcoming destinations for Thais seeking a weekend experience. This humble town radiates the allure of a bygone colonial age and its laid-back lifestyle allows visitors to avoid any rushing.

» After a one-hour journey from Bangkok to the southern town of Trang, the pilot announced we were landing, but our plane took off again a few minutes later.

Into the sea

» As the plane continued its flight to the southern town of Trang, my travel companions and I learned that there was a 70% probability of rain during our trip, so we didn't anticipate spending time on the beach tanning. But as we landed and all we could see was a brilliant blue sky gleaming over the Andaman Sea, it seemed like we had struck lucky.

» Following a peaceful trip to Koh Mak recently, I returned to the mainland and like many other travellers, made the most of my time exploring the historic town of Chanthaburi on the way back to Bangkok.

This looked to be a reward for vacationers staying at Centara Grand Mirage Beach Resort Pattaya.
